Prophecies

These are user interpretations of her prophecies, and while they have been reviewed and deemed accurate by parts of the community, it is important to note that they are not stated in canon.

Prophecy Meaning
"Beware your two queens; beware your own power. Your claws will betray you in your final hour." [1] To Arctic, warning him that his doom will be caused by his own claws, power, and his two queens — Queen Vigilance, who welcomed him into her tribe's home, and Queen Diamond, the queen of his tribe and Arctic's mother. This comes true when Darkstalker enchants him to disembowel himself.
"The SeaWing brings death. The SeaWing brings salvation. Don't let him come. He must come, or all is lost." [2] Referring to Fathom and how he would be a necessary friend to Darkstalker, but someone who will unknowingly push him to fulfill his dark motives.

Quotes

"It's not that simple, […] It's not 'here's your life, that's the way it will be.' It's every possible life, all the things that could happen to me and the tribe, and it all depends on what I do next. But there are so many - I can't keep track-and the further I look into the future, the more confusing and random it gets…"
― Clearsight, telling her father about seeing the future. (Darkstalker, page 40)

"I'm looking for clues about how animus power works. There's so much we don't know. Can one animus spell override another? Is there anything animus magic can't do? Do different spells affect their souls in different ways, or are they always the same? But all the scrolls are about IceWings, and it sounds like they've always restricted their magic so much that no one's had a chance to find out anything. I mean, of course no one wants to run experiments on animus dragons, even if you had more than one at a time for comparison, to see who goes evil first. So it's all anecdotal, and …"
― to Vigilance (Darkstalker, page 250)

"It's — well, it's complicated — there are so many consequences — and spells can go wrong, especially with a war scenario where it's all so chaotic. it's kind of an unspoken rule that tribes don't use animus magic in war, isn't it? Because if we use animus magic, then they might retaliate with animus magic, and then it gets … well, really bad …"
― to Vigilance (Darkstalker, page 251)

"You can't wipe out an entire tribe. There are hundreds, maybe thousands of innocent IceWings. Think of all the little dragonets who aren't part of this war. You're not a dragonet-killer, Darkstalker."
― to Darkstalker (Darkstalker, page 255)

"We don't want to keep out all the other tribes. The NightWings are famous for our intertribal relations and open trade partnerships. Our scrolls and artwork are sold across the continent. Dragons bring us new ideas and inventions and discoveries from all over. If we close our border, especially with violence, we lose all of that. We lose everything that makes us who we are."
― to Vigilance (Darkstalker, page 257)

"I'm sorry, my love. I know it's the worst thing. I know it hurts and you're not all right and you're angry and you want to punish the IceWings, but you have to fight the anger and the darkness. Darkstalker, I'm so, so scared. The things I've seen in the future because of this — the things that happen to you, the things that you do and what you become — it's all so dark, I almost can't see the light anymore. I'm afraid we're losing our bright paths …"
― to Darkstalker (Darkstalker, page 259)

"Thank you for being you. I hope your life is everything it should be."
― to Listener (Darkstalker, page 338)

"Maybe it started the first time you lied to me. Or maybe it was losing Foeslayer and not being able to do anything about it. Maybe it was all the small moments where you felt threatened or powerless or out of control, and all the things you did to fight those feelings … Or maybe it's just part of you, something you hatched with. Maybe that's what you really got from your father, along with your magic. Maybe you were always going to turn out this way, no matter how I tried to save you."
― to Darkstalker (Darkstalker, page 353-354)

"I've been reading everything I can find about her. I found papers she wrote in school and stories written about her by a friend named Listener. Clearsight was brilliant, maybe the most brilliant NightWing who ever lived. No one's ever been able to navigate multiple futures in their visions the way she did. That's why Darkstalker loved her."
― Moonwatcher to Qibli about Clearsight (Darkness of Dragons, page 249)

"In this book are my visions of what is yet to come. Some of it seems small, but I have included everything, even if I can’t tell yet why it’s important. I leave this in the hope that it will make life better for both our tribes. I hope you will use it to protect the dragons around you, especially the ones who are the most threatened, regardless of who they are and how you think you feel about them."
― Clearsight, about the Book of Clearsight. (The Lost Continent, page 283)
